Your “Look Who Came Crawling Back!” Thursday Night Football

Yeah, Melvin Gordon is back in the cranky, hardline bosom of the Spanos family. It’s about time a rich white cabal won a showdown against a lone black dude. I feel as though the universe has come back into balance. To no one’s surprise, Rikki’s Austin Ekeler shares are tanking.

Going over the numbers, this doesn’t look like a bananacakes game but maybe we could have a bananabread tilt? The kind of bananabread that is just a little bit warm, warm enough that the generous pat of (unsalted) butter melts gently over the surface. The kind that has that crust that is a bit crunchy-not burned but has sat in the oven just a minute or two longer than the recipe suggests. Where was I?… Oh, right. TO THE GAME!

Eagles/Pack:

Fantasy dudes are whining that qb Rodgers is a dud so far but it should be noted that he’s played 3 of the top 5 D’s from last year. Wagerers are taking note that Rodgers is a minor god-like 62-10 at home over the course of his career. He should get well vs. a Philly team that has not recorded a single sack from a defensive end so far this year. “But at least their secondary is keeping things tight”, is a line that no one who follows the club closely has said this year. It’s remarkably easy to pass on this unit. Like, 300 yards plus per game easy.

Maybe the Eagles offense might come to the rescue tonight? Geez, I guess it could happen. However DJax is out, Goedart has a calf issue, Arcega-Whiteside has a heel thing and Alshon is also calving. Ertz should get all the balls he wants and more this evening.

As the Mennonites like to say, “Make hay folks!”.

yeah right

Goddammit GLOW on Netflix is pretty goddamn good.

I’m old. Takes me awhile.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

This current season is intense. Loved it.

ALXMAC

I didn’t start watching Breaking Bad until S3. “The Terror” Season 1 was amazing (with a lot of the cast from Rome and Mad Men). I haven’t watched Season 2 yet b/c like many shows I’m waiting for the season to be complete.

Unsurprised

Damn it, Simpsons.

Greta Simpson is awesome.

ALXMAC

Tired peeps on TV (both hosts and guests over the last week) keep forgetting to say “or she” and it shows that they already know whom it is.

Unsurprised

I do like that the New York Times went all-in today on showing everyone that the paper sucks and always has.

ALXMAC
Viva La Tabula Raza

This has worked out well. Drunk old guy signing off. PS our current president is the stupidest person to ever steal or win the office.
Edit: I would lap Rachel’s labia in a heartbeat.

WCS

/Andrew Johnson nods his head

Unsurprised

Technically correct! The best kind of correct.

ALXMAC
Viva La Tabula Raza

So, watching Rachel Maddow. Question: lesbian chicks apparently do not like penis. But how do they handle getting their box ate by a hetero male? Especially if he is good at it. Just curious.

Unsurprised

Not well

Horatio Cornblower

Well, they’re lesbians, so I’d say best case they’d be surprised.

ALXMAC
Unsurprised

WHY EAGLES WHY

yeah right

cosigned to a life making sandwiches at WaWa.

Gotta know your mission.

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Troy saying those were some of the biggest holes he’s ever seen confirmed that he didn’t party with Michael Irvin

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Banner.

ALXMAC

2nded.

WCS

Actualy good TNF game? Lots of bourbon? Time for some pizza. C’mon over. All are welcome, but, last to arrive has to walk my dog.

Mr. Ayo

On my way. I’m walking the dog regardless of my timeliness.

Horatio Cornblower

How is that a bad thing?

King Hippo

why one NEVAR bets on Iggles. They are capable of any batshit result, at any given time.

/remember that Hippo Thoughts told ya GB still felt very 10-6 to me

Viva La Tabula Raza

I love upsets (of course not when the Pats get upset).

Gratliff

Speaking of great moments in Eagles history

NAWT FAYUH!!! NAWT FAYUH!!! TUCK RULE!!! INCOMPLETE PASS!!!

Viva La Tabula Raza

So I got a minus 1 downfist for that one. I’ve never seen that before.

Horatio Cornblower

That’s OK; the rest of us can cover those for you.

Gratliff

*20 minutes of praying*
“Oh shit, I just ended the game. Time for a sarcastic lambeau leap.”

Viva La Tabula Raza

Whoa, that is nucking futs.

King Hippo

5th throw inside the 2? NOT a charm.

Horatio Cornblower

Almost like the Eagles expected it.

Horatio Cornblower

Aaron Rodgers hasn’t been this let down by someone close to him since that last family dinner.

Unsurprised

Damn trust falls

litre_cola

Ahahahahahahahhaahaha the secondary did it!!!

Mr. Ayo

Lol Favre. Wait, no, the new guy.

Rodney_Peete_is_1337

Wonk wonk

Gratliff

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo

Horatio Cornblower

You know, maybe flag football isn’t such an awful idea.

hippofant

Is that a Packers player praying on the field?

Mr. Ayo

Yeah, they really need this TD to get to 4-0.

litre_cola

Seems so. Looked like one of them door knockin types.

ballsofsteelandfury

Carey Lowell looked amazing in Licence To Kill.

King Hippo

she playing CB now?

Horatio Cornblower

Give it a minute.

Gratliff

Iggles were walking wounded before this game even started. Legit don’t know how they stay competitive at this point.

Mr. Ayo

I haven’t seen this much kneeling for a fallen eagle since WWII

King Hippo

while we wait for Iggles timeout to end:

Sharkbait

Here’s a thought. Maybe don’t lead with your head when trying to tackle someone?

Horatio Cornblower

Look at all those team owners!

Mr. Ayo

This game needs more stretchers.

Gratliff

Legit don’t know if Philly has enough CBs

BrettFavresColonoscopy

Overtime or missed two point conversion?

King Hippo

so…Pedersen “saved” his timeout and didn’t challenge, just in case. Now he will lose it automatically for the under-2 injury

Mr. Ayo

No, no. He SAVED it for the under-2 injury. He’s playing chess.

Horatio Cornblower

Bored with killing Packers, the Eagles have turned on their own.

Mr. Ayo

Any port in a storm!

Rodney_Peete_is_1337

These Eagles, I call them the Trump administration because they don’t take whistleblowers seriously

Horatio Cornblower

Banner this man.

And then impeach him.

WCS

This is our one good TNF game this season, right? I guess I’ll keep waiting for the Jesse Pinkman movie.

Horatio Cornblower

That movie is inevitably going to disappoint me and I am gonna watch it 4 times anyway.

Unsurprised

That last season was garbage. What makes you think this will be any different?

Horatio Cornblower

Stop it.

King Hippo

when is that out?

Horatio Cornblower

Sometime in October.

Horatio Cornblower

They called that a catch? You could see it bounce for fuck’s sake!

litre_cola

The Eagles killed one of their guys so the reffing has been iffy.

Horatio Cornblower

I mean, I guess that’s fair.

Unsurprised

Forget it, Horatio. It’s The Shield.

Horatio Cornblower

Valdez-Scantling sounds like some shitty explorer who discovered the Yucatan peninsula and killed a bunch of Mayans.

Viva La Tabula Raza

+1 Lost City of Z

Buddy Cole's Halftime Show

Injury tent sounds like priapism.

Mr. Ayo

Nothing a single Kraft can’t fix.

Unsurprised

Mmmmm. Individually wrapped Kraft Single.

/DROOLS. HARD!

Horatio Cornblower

I dunno, if I’m Wentz I maybe don’t throw a slider there.

WCS

Stephen A. Smith is already prepping his take with why you’re wrong.

Gratliff

Welp. Everyone’s got their blueprint for Green Bay now.

Mr. Ayo

Score more than 30 points?

Take out their best players with head shots?

Or do you mean run the ball down their throats?

Gratliff

All of the above, preferably

Horatio Cornblower

Yes

King Hippo

ok, so they threw 4x from the 1 without their only good WR on the pitch??

Mr. Ayo

They’d never expect it!

Horatio Cornblower

comment image

Mr. Ayo

So 7 minute TD drive coming up?

Viva La Tabula Raza

Still scratching my head over wtf the relationship of the two girls in the alexa ad is.

Maybe Amazon is trolling me.

Mr. Ayo

We went over this. They’re the same person. The better version of them bought from Amazon.

Viva La Tabula Raza

Now that you mention it, I do recall this. It might be one of those things that just gets beyond my comprehension. Like Trump and the Constitution.

WCS

Ancient Egyptian harem?
